Prepare for Butt-Whoopin’
on June 4, 2016 at 12:01 amHEY LOOK HOOPER (AND MAX AND FITZ but not zak) ARE ALL ALIVE, SOMEHOW, SUDDENLY
9/11 brought Hooper back to life, guys.
greatest regret: bringing hooper back to life not having him need to replace his hand with that chainsaw
That third panel is just so cool.
well,
SPOILERS

i’m not sure “alive” is the right word
Was it ever established how Hooper and the rest turned down the road? It was such a glossed over plot point.
I mean I seem to recall there being quite a few “haha eat your brains haha that’d be hilarious right” jokes after this point, I think I just concluded it was some kind of Martian zombie thing and he was controlling it up until endgame?
… Which makes no sense given the other method of Martian resurrection we see isn’t even remotely similar, but makes marginally more sense than “no explanation whatsoever, but we can conclude Willis had a sudden change of heart about killing a character based off someone he knew in the wake of 9/11” and… whatever that was in endgame.
Joyce realized THE POWER WAS IN HER ALL ALONG
like how my brother commented about Sailor Moon: “They just WANT to win BADLY ENOUGH, so they do”
Clearly we’re operating on Discworld rules and Hooper brought himself back through sheer force of will. 😛
I don’t think Max or Fitz died, they just ran off after Monkey Master (with Zack, who clearly did die).
There is probably a short story to be told around all of it, I suppose.
I’ll talk more about my own take on what happened as it gets reposted.
While there’s definitely skill that’s been developed over the years, that splash panel still probably ranks as some of my favorite Willisworks.
Next Comic: Butts are Whooped!
Butts are HOOPED.
Why do the Martians have an embassy? An embassy to what?
Uh, Earth, I guess?
No wait, it’s underwater, so… maybe Atlantis?
What, you think the creatures worth talking to on Earth breathe air?
Are you saying Dolphins aren’t worth talking to?
That would have, indeed, been groovy.
Awww. I was going to make that joke.
This scene is just so Joyce.
He even pronounces words misspelled. That is some kind of talent, I guess.
I’m a uniquely talented guy.
He meant to say “Ass chicken”. Hoop’s hungry.
Maybe it’s the past participle of kick. “Their asses will have been kicken”, much like how water can be drinken, or kids can be shrinken.
…
At least dogs can be bitten. That one’s not made up.
English is dumb and anyone who insists it all makes sense and there’s a singular Proper way to do it is being ridiculous and snooty.
Also, “ass chicken” sounds very unpleasant, because it’s either the ass of a chicken, or chicken from an ass. Or possibly donkey meat combined with chicken like some dubious tofurkey.
..err, turducken, whatever.
But now that sounds like “turd ducken”. Is that what happens next?
“Did I miss the butt-whoopin’?”
Awesome. Just awesome.
I guess that explains why these developments never really made any sense,
Sarah Connor??
Okay, he’s alive, but I’m not sure he’s in full ass-kicken form right now if he needs 2 other guys to carry him around…
This is a pretty cool moment from a pretty cool comic.
I just realised, is this the first time Joyce wielded the giant cannon gun?
Joyce is super cute in that last panel. I like girls with weapons.
